CacheBar is a free, minimalist, lightweight menu bar application for macOS that elevates your productivity to a new level. Inspired by the practical clipboard history on modern mobile operating systems, CacheBar solves the biggest flaw of the native macOS clipboard: it never forgets. By default, macOS only remembers the very last item you copied. When you copy something new, your previous clipboard item is lost forever. CacheBar runs quietly in the background, remembers everything you copy, and keeps it instantly accessible at your fingertips. KEY FEATURES: • Seamless History: Every text, link, or code snippet you copy (using ⌘+C or context menus) automatically lands in your chronological history list. • 1-Click Reactivation: Simply click any entry in the menu bar list to instantly copy it back to your active clipboard, ready for ⌘+V. • Power-User Navigation: Navigate the list effortlessly with your keyboard. Use the Arrow keys to browse, Enter to copy, Escape to close, and keys 1-9 for instant shortcut copies. • Double-Click Inline Editing: Double-click any row to edit and refine your clips directly inside the app. CacheBar automatically re-detects link or code types. • Lightweight & Clean-Up: Keep your Mac clutter-free. Configure history limits (50 or 100 clips) and pin important items to prevent them from being purged. • Pure Menu Bar Design: No bulky windows, no Dock icon. The interface opens discreetly right under the status bar when you need it and disappears instantly when you click away. 100% PRIVACY & OFFLINE-ONLY: We believe your clipboard history is private. • CacheBar stores all data locally in a secure, sandboxed database on your Mac. • The app operates entirely offline and does not require or request any network entitlements. • Zero telemetry, zero tracking, and zero data collection. Built 100% natively in SwiftUI for macOS Sonoma and Sequoia, CacheBar is incredibly fast, memory-light, and battery-friendly. Privacy Policy: https://aaronwst.de/CacheBarDS
